ODBC CLUB NOTICES

CONVENTION CARDS

ACBL Rules of Duplicate Bridge state that all players must bring an up-to-date convention card which is completely filled out to the table with them. The card must be specific to the partnership that is playing. ODBC Directors will begin enforcing this rule at all club games, so remember to update your convention cards regularly to insure that they are accurate.
